Robert H.August 14, 2023
“I appreciate that the office fit me into their schedule when I shared my medical concerns. Instead of a months wait, (that was offered here on the app) they were able to arrange an appointment within days!! My wait was a bit long once I arrived BUT that was in part due to the doctor being very thorough! He is also teaching the younger doctors which is so important. So, the wait didn’t really bother me. Doctor Ajah is a member of me medical wellness team because I trust him. He is good for directly following up with me. ”
